Help with mage spec please
« on: September 04, 2009, 06:27:41 pm »
Seeing as I cant access f*** all on this site these days, I'll post here :)

Currently Arcance/frost 57/3/11 and curious about Fire/Arcane spec these days. I currently do aprox 2.9k dps with base stats:
2163 bonus dmg
277 Hit
32cri
291 haste

current spec: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#oshVfz0IzxGuMxedcZbGc0o

Armory: http://armory.wow-europe.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Dunemaul&n=Pogg

current rotation tends to be 3 buttons:

Arcane blast x3
if proc
Barrage
if no proc Arc missiles

making use of presense of mind, icy veins and arcane power each cooldown.

Frost nova for AoE.

So, anything in Fire which might be slightly more interesting and involve more than 3-4 buttons?

 ;D

The 'Fire' spec involves 4 buttons, scorch, fireball, pyroblast and living bomb.  Only 3 if you're lucky to have a scorch bitch.

This is the build I use: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#of0fcu0cZ0Ec0RhIuVhbhct

Didn't take combustion 'cos it's shit.

Not really a rotation to be had for this, more a list of priorities:

- Is scorch up? No? cast scorch.
- Do you have a hot streak proc? Yes? Yes pyroblast
- Do you have lb on? No? Cast living bomb.
- Do you like spamming ice lance? No? Cast fireball.

You get no hit talents with this build, though, so you need 368 for raids with a shadow priest or boomkin... a shitload more for those without.

Frostfire build would be something like: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#oZfVc0RhIuVhbhctbIccoMh - Same priorities as fire, except cast frostfire instead of fireball.  You also only need 289 hit rating for a sp-raid, 368 for a raid without.

Thats quiet a lot of +hit to get with current gear.

4 buttons sounds more fun than 3...

I can't keep up with whether you are 'in' or 'out' Biff...

But you have guild forum access now.
Now I run a tech website.

Well I try to keep up to date with the 'gimme guild access' thread -- but if you find your way into the guild via other routes, like... an invite from Tyler... then I can't be held liable for updating forum ranks!

(He could also fix your forum rank, incidentally.)

Oh God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"
Abe says, "Man, you must be puttin' me on"
God say, "No."
Abe say, "What?"
God say, "You can do what you want Abe, but the next time you see me comin' you better run"
Well Abe says, "Where do you want this killin' done?"
God says, "Out on Highway 61"
